Can the LAW ammunition tubes purchased online or through an army navy store?  A friend of mine wanted the tube to hold some axle shafts and I figure they sell those military ammo cans all over the internet, so I figure I would ask you guys after searching high and low.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

EDIT:  Just to clarify, I do not want a demilled LAW, just the missile ammunition tube if that even makes sense.

Several listings for LAW tubes on www.gunbroker.com.  Just search "law tube" or M-72 tube

Wouldn't 4" PVC work?  You can get that at Home Depot.

Empty LAW tubes are inherently inert (they're throwaway items, once fired.  Not reloadable) and not regulated at all.  Can buy em easily enough at army-navy stores, etc.  

I'd imagine PVC pipe would make a much better container.

I told him that in the first place but he was hellbent on something cooler.  I guess he thought he could get one for like $25.  Off to the home depot we go...as much as we hate going there...

Natchez has mortar storage tubes for sale.
Price doesn't look bad, but the shipping might be.

It will probably be more cost effective to purchase PVC tubing locally.

EDIT:
I know I've spent a bit more money to get something cooler before.
Maybe you can find a local Army surplus shop, or gun show

4" PVC and OD Krylon should be cheaper that an inert LAW tube.

Don't you dare fuck up some collectible spent rocket launchers.

Go get some spent TOW missile storage tubes.


The LAW tubes are upwards of $100 each.
